Have always been intrigued by the small ferry tours all around the island. You know when you live in a place for too long, you stop doing the touristy things and gradually resort to routine. Sometimes it's when you've lost the opportunity before you realize how valuable it is in hindsight, sadly.....

“No wonder I’ve been ascending this climb so quickly. Trail Truffles are a perfect blend of nutritious fuel for my hike. Now time to bag that peak.”

Nikon named Michigan the best state for fall colors for the third year in a row. I think it’s the best state for a lot of things, but I’m biased. Michigan really is a dream in the fall though. Especially the UP. If you know, you know.

Today was the most amazing day. I went on a tour of Amsterdam and the surrounding area with my cousins. We visited the house in Bussum that my Opa grew up in during WW2. He wrote a book about his time growing up doing the Nazi occupation. His father was part of the resistance, hiding Jews and people in the rebellion as well as printing resistance fliers in their cellar. The woman who lives there now invited us in for coffee and a chat. From there were visited an old windmill, climbed to the top and bought Dutch snacks that had been milled right in the windmill. The whole day my cousins told us fantastic stories, we are delicious food, and had many laughs. It was such an incredible day. I feel so blessed!

Backed up the photos from my camera this morning. Chose these two as my first round favorites: this pup who may love traveling more than his moms + my first attempt at the milky way. My lens wasn’t focused well, the headlights from a couple cars that chose the same desert road we pulled off on created some extra light and the moon was shining like the literal sun, but MAN THAT SKY WAS BEAUTIFUL + it was worth the frozen cheeks and red noses. #ckandaaway#roccotacoontheroad

"It's not an adventure if there's no hint of danger."

One of the hidden gems of the bay area. It's a short hike but you'll be going under/over fallen trees, crossing eerie foliage, searching for faint trails blanketed by fallen leaves, all the while hearing the sound of a flowing creek in the background.

And as you leave the park, a narrow path off the main trail that most will missed, an abandoned creepy site smeared with graffiti.
